The network's treatment of DS9 is most illogical. Why?


Cuz I sez so fool!

Lower ratings = less ad revenue

 

[cylkoth]

^^ You're not making me feel better...

 

[gastrof]

Anyone have an idea on why they've skipped "Playing God"?

It wasn't shown during the last few of the day runs, and they've gone past it on the overnight showings.

I've been recording them on DVD...

Ended up having to pull out my old original VHS of the first run, and transfer THAT to the disc.

 

[nx1701g]

^ they may have done that because of the Maquis two parter.

No.

It's "Blood Oath" they're skipping and moving forward a week. "Playing God" isn't showing up at all, apparently.

Got your pm, but the board would allow me to send it, saying something about exceeding email limits...

I'd say it was simply an oversight. It's been run before, and there's nothing remotely objectionable about the ep...so I can't see them getting all conversvative about anything in DS9, given the kinds of programming they love to air.

 

[DanCPA]

My dvr now has them on it's schedule... But only 3 ep's a week? Is this some sort of really bad joke?

 

[od0_ital]

Ya know what really ticks me off about this new schedule?

It takes away from The Shield reruns in the middle of the night!



Maybe Odo & Vic Mackey could team up & solve crimes & stuff...

 

[DanCPA]

Honestly, I don't really care what time the shows come on anymore because I just record everything and watch them at my will! I just want to know what they put in the place of DS9...

 

[nx1701g]

^ This morning it was a movie.

 

[cylkoth]

^^ That's correct. A 2 hr movie now airs mornings. And I just noticed TNG is down to 2 hours, don't know how long it that way. Plus, it seems the all encompassing CSI beast has swallowed Vic Mackey and his Shield-CSI now sandwiched between latenight VOY and DS9.
A year or less, Spike changes it's name again...The CSI Channel.

 

[JD]

God, this sucks. I haven't watched DS9 in ages thanks to school, and I finally decide to go back to and they move it to frikkin' 3:00am (az time)! Any idea if this is permanent or temporary?

 

[cylkoth]

^^Seven Days has been removed/returned numerous times, so DS9 could be returned to a better slot in the future...

 

[PKTrekGirl]

Taking this down now. Thanks cylkoth!
